Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

Under Sherlock's questioning, Hana revealed what she really wanted. It was simple: she wanted a space like the one beneath Urahara's shop in the anime to cultivate, or even just a larger basement would be fine.

As for Sister Hua's request, Sherlock's eyes lit up and he immediately patted his chest, saying that he could solve it, and even replicate it one-to-one without any problem, which made Sister Hua smile again.

Just then, Tony arrived at Sherlock's side. After Sherlock introduced Hua Jie and Tony to each other, he went to busy himself with Hua Jie's basement.

On the contrary, Tony was full of curiosity about Hana, who suddenly appeared next to Sherlock. Especially under Hana's gentle Yamato Nadeshiko temperament, Tony almost took the so-called gentlemanly demeanor to the extreme.

To be honest, the two of them had a very pleasant chat.

About half an hour later, when Sherlock returned after building the underground space according to Sister Hua's idea, Sister Hua and Tony were already chatting and laughing.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere between the two, Sherlock's smile never faded. Upon seeing Sherlock return, Sister Hua bid farewell to Tony, saying she was going to check out the basement Sherlock had built for her.

Only after Sister Hua left did Tony approach Sherlock with a gossipy look and ask him a question.

"Who is this? Her gentle temperament is quite a match for you. It's no wonder you've been so eager to bring her back to Earth from the universe, and even bring her home."

"Don't talk nonsense, this is a real senior."

Faced with Tony's teasing, Sherlock rolled his eyes and dealt with Tony's gossip on the surface, but in reality he was about to burst out laughing. He hoped that Tony would still have the same impression of Sister Hua when he received her training.

"I get it, I get it, the saying goes, 'A woman three years older than her husband is like a gold brick.'"

No, you don't understand at all!

Sherlock really wanted to answer Tony like that, but he held back, because his current restraint was all in preparation for watching Tony struggle better in the future.

As for Tony's joke about marrying a woman three years older than you being a gold mine? Sherlock could only roll his eyes at Tony again, clearly annoyed.

Is this some kind of gold brick problem? If we really think about it, I could be holding an elixir of immortality and joining the ranks of the immortals!

Ignoring Tony, Sherlock made a phone call to Captain America, Black Widow, and Zhao Weike, arranging to meet at the nearby pub for an open and honest discussion.

None of them refused, and half an hour later, everyone, including Sherlock and Tony, was sitting at the bar in the tavern.

Sherlock, representing Tony, discussed the so-called compensation with the captain and clarified Tony's bottom line.

Tony's bottom line is simple: if it can be proven that Bucky did not kill Tony's parents voluntarily, and that Bucky did not join Hydra, then Tony will give up the pursuit of Bucky.

Of course, this is all on the condition that Bucky never appears in front of Tony again, nor joins the Avengers.

To put it simply, there's no Bucky if there's Tony, and no Tony if there's Bucky.

The captain agreed to this without hesitation, even agreeing to help Tony get Pierce out of prison, just to test the waters and try to get himself out of playing the Hydra captain.

Of course, this was strongly opposed by Sherlock and Tony, but Tony did not reject the Captain's idea of ​​finding someone to help.

After agreeing to Tony's request, the captain made his own request.

Sherlock had initially thought the captain would make some kind of request about Bucky or the Avengers, but to Sherlock's utter surprise, the captain's request was surprisingly unique and unconventional.

The captain actually wants Tony to buy a plot of land next to the community and build a warehouse! Or he could just buy a warehouse right around the community.

Faced with the captain's strange request, not only were Tony completely bewildered, but even Sherlock was dumbfounded.

However, after pressing her for details, Sherlock finally understood the captain's thoughts.

Simply put, the captain's main reason for asking for this warehouse was to move the tavern there and turn it into a club activity base that combines vehicle modification, a tavern, an event venue, and even a gym.

As for the original tavern, the captain plans to convert it into a dormitory for the Black Widows. After all, as more and more Black Widows are liberated, more and more of them want to live normal lives, so the original plan needs to be changed a bit.

As for this job, Tony waved his hand and said that he would take care of it. He not only made clear arrangements, but also offered to fund the renovation of the original bar.

Seeing that the captain was even willing to sacrifice his reputation for the sake of the PAB club, Sherlock remained silent for a moment, then took out an exquisitely carved dragon-head short stick from his four-dimensional pocket and solemnly handed it to the captain.

"Even at a time like this, you haven't forgotten the gang. I trust you with the future of the PAB Alcoholics Gang. This dragon-headed staff will be passed down to you. From now on, you are the second-generation leader of the PAB Alcoholics Gang!"

After saying this, Sherlock ran away without looking back, leaving the others staring blankly at the dragon-headed staff in their captain's hand.

Chapter 428 Zhao Weike: Oh no! We've fallen for Sherlock's trap!

"No, I've drunk a lot of alcohol with that bunch of bastards, how come no one told me there was such a thing?"

The captain stared blankly at the exquisitely carved dragon-head short stick in his hand, looking in Zhao Weike's direction, as if he couldn't believe that what he was holding was the thing that represented the gang's heritage.

On the other side, Zhao Weike was equally bewildered. This PAB was established under his watchful eye. Sherlock, the so-called leader, was more like a mascot. How come he didn't know that there was such a ritualistic thing?

"Don't look at me like that, I don't know either..."

Halfway through his speech, Zhao Weike suddenly realized what was going on.

wrong!

Damn it, they've fallen for that little bastard Sherlock's trick!

He rightfully got rid of the huge burden of the alcoholism gang, and even passed it on to the more dangerous captain!

Damn it, it's already absurd enough that an alchemist from the Battle of New York became the leader of a motorcycle gang whose main purpose was to drink, straddling both the underworld and the legitimate world. Now you're telling them that the famous Captain America is actually the second-generation leader of this weird gang?

"Fuck your grandma, Sherlock, you little bastard, don't run away! Come back if you dare! I don't acknowledge this damn dragon-headed staff!"

As Zhao Weike roared, he rushed out of the tavern, leaving Captain America, Black Widow, and Tony sitting awkwardly in their seats, exchanging glances.

Especially Black Widow and Captain America, who had absolutely no idea what had happened, while Tony was able to guess a little bit.

Having been sitting next to Sherlock the whole time, Tony clearly saw a red light emanating from Sherlock's four-dimensional pocket when Sherlock was taking out the dragon-headed cane from his pocket.

It's obvious that both the dragon head staff and the so-called second generation were just things Sherlock made up on the spot.

The problem is, once Sherlock posts this situation, which has a strange sense of ritual and is full of chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur), in the PAB club's group chat, those drunkards really believe it!

This is the main reason why Sherlock turned and ran after handing the thing to the captain.

By the time Zhao Weike realized what was happening, it was already too late. The bastards from the PAB gang had actually accepted Sherlock's hastily made dragon-headed staff.

After all, the first leader was a legendary alchemist, and the second was Captain America. This situation is unique to Scorpion Papa in the world, so there's no reason not to agree.

Most importantly, these things don't stop them from drinking or riding motorcycles to show off, right?

In particular, Sherlock emphasized the captain's contributions to the PAB organization in his notification.

Putting everything else aside, just the warehouse that combines modification, storage, tavern, gym, and even event space is enough to make the captain a pampered figure by that group of drinking bastards.

How could anyone not love such a happy haven exclusively for men?

Not to mention that many wives in the PAB community were already unhappy with the motorcycle in the warehouse, and now that they had a home, it was like rescuing these men with tigresses at home.

It can only be said that Captain America becoming the second-generation leader was a popular choice. The only slight drawback was that although Captain America took over the position of the second-generation leader, he left New York with Black Widow that very night to complete Tony's request.

Meanwhile, after the captain left, Tony began working on the warehouse and house renovations as agreed with the captain.

Of course, Sherlock didn't forget his and Tony's plan. That night, he pulled Sister Flower aside and asked her to teach Tony swordsmanship so that Tony could become a swordsmanship master.

Hua Jie didn't refuse, but Tony was full of questions when he heard Sherlock want him to become Hua Jie's apprentice.

Even after dinner, he quietly chatted with Sister Hua while pulling Sherlock aside.

It's no wonder Tony doubted whether Hana could teach him well. After all, who would have thought that Hana, who seemed so gentle and kind, would be a complete serial killer?

It's important to know that Tony's impression of Sister Hua has always been that of a lady who wears an elegant yet dignified white dress, has a large braid, wears a hat, and always has a gentle smile on her face.

However, as the sun rose the next day, Sherlock took Tony to the underground space specially built for Sister Flower. After formally receiving Sister Flower's instruction, Tony realized just how wrong it was to judge a book by its cover.

Sister Hua's swordsmanship instruction for Tony was exceptionally simple and brutal, so brutal that even Sherlock found it somewhat unbearable to watch.

After confirming that Tony was indeed going to learn swordsmanship from her, Sister Hua immediately demonstrated her skills in front of Tony.

Honestly, when Tony saw the once-Yamato Nadeshiko-like Hana with a sickly smile, uttering two words he couldn't understand at all, and instantly transforming the entire space into a hellish environment filled with viscous blood, he was completely dumbfounded.

However, this was not the most despairing thing for Tony. What truly made Tony feel despair was that when facing such a crazy woman, he was only holding an ordinary samurai sword!

However, seeing Tony completely stunned, Sister Hua showed no mercy. She slit Tony's throat with a single stroke and revived him in the blink of an eye. Then, with a sinister grin, she told Tony the main content of this training session.

"Kill me, or be killed by me repeatedly!"

!!!

Tony's heart sank when he heard this. He instinctively tried to summon his armor, but unfortunately, at a depth of nearly a hundred meters underground, no signal could be transmitted, let alone summon his armor.

All Tony could do was face being killed by Sister Hua time and time again. In the process, he fought with all his might to resist Sister Hua's attacks, learning to resist again and again in the face of death, and bursting forth with the most tenacious courage of mankind.

As for killing Sister Hua?

Stop talking nonsense. Tony is already considered to have graduated from his training if he can even scratch Sister Hua, let alone kill her? At the beginning, Tony couldn't even withstand one of Sister Hua's attacks. He died countless times before he could barely withstand her first slash.

Honestly, as expected of the captain of the Fourth Division in Soul Society, who is in charge of healing, Tony actually let go of all his worries as he was killed and resurrected by her time and time again. Even his so-called anxiety gradually improved with each of her kills.

Of course, this effect only works on Tony; anyone else would probably have collapsed by now.

After watching for a while, Sherlock quietly slipped away; it was really a bit too cruel.

However, to Sherlock's complete surprise, his retribution came the very next day.

God knows how much Tony wanted to take revenge on Sherlock after dying countless times, and what he used to convince Sister Flower to drag Sherlock by the ear and face Tony together the next day.

Sherlock was not even allowed to use any alchemy, and could only fight back with an ordinary spear, just like Tony.

After just one morning, Sherlock and Tony were both in a daze during lunch, and more than once they put food directly into their noses instead of their mouths.

Seeing the two looking dazed, Zhao Weike finally couldn't hold back any longer. He looked at Sherlock and Tony with a worried expression and asked them.

What's wrong with you two?

Zhao Weike's words only made things worse. After he finished speaking, Sherlock and Tony exchanged a glance, and their expressions instantly became excited.

It can only be said that people are absolutely full of energy when they are doing bad things, and they don't get tired at all.

So, at the dinner table that evening, Zhao Weike didn't even have the energy to curse anymore, and successfully joined Tony and Sherlock, forming a distraught trio.

Chapter 429 This sin cannot be borne by me alone!

It's no wonder Zhao Weike wanted to curse; Sherlock and Tony were just too inhuman.

The two reached a consensus during their eye contact at lunchtime. They put their arms around Zhao Weike on either side, one of them starting to flatter him while the other started to praise him to death.

Tony was talking about how tough and tiring close-combat training was, and how he sometimes didn't even understand the techniques. Meanwhile, Sherlock was standing next to him, holding Wick's glorious achievement of killing three people with just a pencil.

After working together, the two successfully fooled Zhao Weike so much that he immediately patted his chest and said that he would train with Sherlock and Tony in the afternoon.

In Zhao Weike's mind, he was at most a teaching assistant, whose role was simply to help these two people quickly familiarize themselves with various close-combat routines and techniques.

However, Sister Hua, who had remained silent throughout the entire farce, clearly understood Tony and Sherlock's thoughts.

This isn't about finding a teaching assistant. What does Unohana need a teaching assistant for? Isn't this just about finding someone to share the burden of hurting her companions?
